Interesting book for its day. Given (original) NT's very obvious Mach and Unix influences, it always seemed odd that the book didn't mention them. There was also something about missing TCP/IP networking that made me laugh about the networking chapter. The chapter on NTFS also misses that NTFS is mildly simplified FILES-11.
Totally missed explaining why COFF object files were chosen.
